Cross-cultural
Awareness Volunteer Programme
The
Cairn Euro-Asian Cross-cultural Awareness
Volunteer Programme has a
genuine cross-cultural immersion learning
and research experience as its main goal.
As an innovative initiative in Euro-Asia
university and High Education Institutions (HEIs)
linkages, this platform is widely regarded
as timely and appropriate, provided that key
element of its strategy be refocused as much on
the future of sustainable and relevant high
education exchange niches, than addressing Asian
LDCs pressing priorities and bringing more
awareness on Nepal dramatic current issues. This
innovative programme is accordingly the only one
of its kind, which links European
researchers with strategic sites selected in the
Himalayan region and places them accordingly at
grassroots in a most favourable position to assess
the prospectives of Asia. While on the one hand,
it addresses the future relations of Europe with
Asia LDCs emerging economies and the result of
imported development policies, Cairn also seeks
for innovative, beneficial and ethical personal
development avenues within the rich traditional,
philosophical and cultural heritage of the
Himalayas, which as tools in terms of attitude,
knowledge and decision-making process may lead to
better understanding, mutual respect and
collaboration.
With
activities being organized under the legal
umbrella of registered local HEIs and non-profit
organizations (NGOs),
such as the St-Xavier Campus(SXC), St-Xavier's
Social Services Center
(SXSSC), Nepal
Institute for Health Science (NIHS), RECID (TU/IOM),
KUNPHEN Tibetan Medical Center, KAILASH Tibetan
Medical Center (Amchi Jampa), and/or other
selected intervenors and community support
groups, Cairn offers a unique choice of true
experiential and professional opportunities for
thesis researchers, postgraduate students,
professionals and/or international volunteers,
including the possibility to enjoy the amazing
beauty of the Himalayan region nature, rich
culture and real involvement with people in
daily life.
Given that
this programme is fundamentally about creating
and expanding new and sustainable structural
opportunities for students, researchers and
trainees to share and upgraded their knowledge,
attitude and awarenness, it will remain flexible
and based upon students projects, within
a Menu of Open Learning ECTS/ECDL Options. While
the present set of priorities range from
‘Human Resource Development’ (HRD),
‘e-Marketing Online Curriculum Development’
and other technical market-driven
categorisations, emphasis is being brought
to cover areas being: Social/Health Anthropology,
Clinical Anthropology, Psychotherapy,
Ethnomedicine, Drug Abuse Counselling Training,
Tsa-rLung Tibetan Medicine Energotherapy,
Tantras, Philosophy, Languages,
Arts & Humanities, Investigation Journalism
and other more precise topics which may be
developed without limitations by students or
trainees in order to address their objectives.
Responding to
the needs of future relations between Europe and
Asia, Cairn Erasmus will seek, encourage
and support Projects that reflect the urgent
need for more awareness on LDCs priorities. For
doing so, it has taken steps since several years
to gather a core of respected/experienced EU and
Asian scholars and interveners, who all are
involved on a daily basis in universities and
NGOs services in/with least developed Asian
countries (LDC) and who bring the much needed
constructive but critical appraisal tools and
resources for an effective cooperation. While
focusing on the evaluation of the past for
fostering the future, Cairn original approach is
in the two-fold nature of its Curriculum Options
studying as much the European and Asian
spiritual heritage values, than personality or
modern e-technology.
Following
the recent European Commission decisions,
the new Erasmus Mundus programme
partnerships will
be developed to strengthen European/Asian co-operation
and international links in higher education by
supporting high-quality European/Asian
Joint-curriculum Masters Courses, enabling
students and visiting scholars to engage in
postgraduate study
at European
universities, as well as by encouraging the
outgoing mobility of European students and
scholars towards third Asian countries.
The CAIRN new
scheme will proceed using both Cultural
Immersion (Tour&Study) in selected strategic
sites in Asia, as well as the usual combination
of online courses, lectures, seminars, group
work and practical fieldwork, including a
dissertation. Students will be continuously
assessed by tutors online on the basis of their
essays, report writing and presentation of
portfolios. There are no examinations for this
programme, as the final aim is based on
personalized experiential and tailored project
which fulfilment will require genuine and
continuous efforts on the ground...
Strategic
Asian Target-site(s) Location
Situated in
the strategic site of Boddhnath Stupa ( KTM
Valley Nepal), itself a crossroad and
a renown
pilgrimage powerplace, Cairn Consortium is at
the core of the Himalayan region outstanding
beauty, as well as immerged into local religious,
cultural, commercial and (post-) development
issues. As a Regional HEIs/NGOs Network, Cairn
also has other selected partners located in
North India (Sarnath, Varanasi, Delhi and
Tsopema HP), Tibet - TAR (Nyalam, Lhasa, Kham)
and China (Shanghai), Thailand, Burma (Myanmar)
and Bali...
From their
learning, seeing, talking, listening, practicing,
experiencing, travelling and discussing –
Cairn programme participants will emerge from
their stay with a different view of Asia, of
their home country and also perhaps of
themselves. For some, this will have been
their first encounter with Nepalese, Tibetans or
Chinese, and they will return home with much to
ponder. Perhaps for some others the greatest
reward will have been the friendships
established with other participants, and with
the local people and youth they got to know.
Regardless of the respective backgrounds, Cairn
will have been a meeting place for some of the
brightest and most interesting students and will
be remembered and valued for the rest of their
lives.
CAIRN
Innovative Pedagogy
(Tentative
Itinerary & Process)
During 28 days
minimum and to upto 4-5 months maximum,
motivated high school students or researchers
being gathered from various parts of Canada, UK,
the United States and Europe, will come to
Bodhanath Stupa - KTM to live, study, practices
and travel together in the whole of the
Himalayan range, exploring a very different
culture and lifestyle, and a very different
perceptions of people and themselves. They
will experience both the traditions and changes
that make the Stupa of Bodhanath so distinctive
and so important for being able to grasp and
understand insights of the present things, and
things to come, in a variety of ways enabling
them to understand what they see.
Participants
will choose from a wide variety of online courses,
or bring a personal research theme, allowing
them to gain an understanding of some of the key
concepts, background and methodology of some of
the controversial topics that are at the
forefront of the changes sweeping through Nepal,
Tibet, China and India. From the meeting of
these prerequisite with their experiential, they
will be in position to appreciate the deep
traditions and history that underlie everything
that happens in the Himalayan region and around.
Students and
researchers will work with qualified NGOs
experts, academic tutors of repute and the young
local generation to undertake different field
studies and investigate for themselves the key
issues of their projects. Coaching, supervision
and daily briefings, sometimes discussed in
classes is an important aspect of the quality of
experiential. Through extensive opportunities
they will meet and talk with a wide range of
people, from lamas, artists, businessmen, NGOs
or HEIs officials, to ordinary shopkeepers,
youth and workers, by visiting villages, urban
homes, SMEs small enterprise workplaces, local
NGOs, monasteries, temples, schools, they will
compare what they learn in class with what they
experience themselves. This combination of
high-level academic instruction with
project-based investigative learning,
discussions and debates, and online broadband
interaction with database online is what will
make Cairn programme a unique opportunity, in a
unique place.
Face to face
language tutorials in Nepalese, Indi, Tibetan
and/or Chinese are made available as options for
those who seek the abilities which will allow
them to share, understand, develop, or hone
their skills in close contact with local people.
Demolition of
the old and construction of the new are
everywhere, including the effects of the ongoing
Maoists insurgency. This is the time to register
what Nepalese, Tibetan and Chinese people are
feeling, living through and hoping for now.
Students will forever be referring to this
experience by saying, "When I studied there,
this is what Nepal was like…."
Cairn
International
StudiesCairn
International Studies will improve European
students' ability to work in an increasingly
globalized environment in Nepal and surrounding
Asia. The goal is to prepare European students and
trainees for focused international tasks, promote
interactive and communicative skills and encourage
an open and receptive attitude towards the
Himalayan region ethnic cultures. Cairn Euro-Asian
Network will further increase opportunities for
internships, field-research and online studies
within an international dimension and with
selected international experts
cooperation.
Cairn
Cross-Cultural Awareness program stresses that for
an Euro-Asian cross-cultural training to be
effective as an enhancement for an international
development organization, it must deal with
several complexities in the learning process,
including that of providing flexible options for
genuine Projects-based Cultural Immersion. Just
providing information, or some online courses, is
not an effective approach for the future
Euro-Asian relations, beyond that of a basic
introductory level.
Cairn believes
that such training should be an interactive
intercultural process, through the use of flexible
training modules being a menu of Cultural
Immersion Options organized in strategic
target-sites, where the behavioral situation, case
studies, scenarios, critical incidents, catharsis
and crisis resolution, will bring to participants
and beneficiaries focused and longterm results.
Cairn is also launching
a stepwise development of a Mixed Mode
Postgraduates and Masters ECDL/ECTS Certification
centered around disciplines initiated from the EU
partners units and linked with the pressing issues
of Nepal/Asian LDCs Development Management. This
unique mode of study allows students the
flexibility to study through a combination of
residential home courses in the EU, field-study in
Asia, group sessions and flexible distance
learning. The recommended pattern of study
starting in 2004/2005 is currently under-design,
for the following
options. |

Volunteer & Internship
Placement
Options |
As the majority of Cairn volunteer program
activities will be situated within and around
Kathmandu (KTM) valley, or its immediate
surrounding hill side villages, campus, NGOs or
monasteries, the Cairn programme participants will
be able to easily contribute towards the benefit
of their host Nepalese community, bringing the
core richness of exchanges and insights in
educational or social/health intervention
services, and enjoying for themselves the unique
chances of encounters, teachings, rituals,
trekking, study within their topical exploration.
Cairn has been working in KTM valley since 1988,
mostly with local NGOs, monasteries and
international organizations (INGOS), including the
SXC and SXSSC.

Institutional
Requirements |
Because the offered Joint-
Postgraduate/Masters Courses must already in
existence and must be fully operational at the
time of a European university Consortium
application to the Erasmus Mundus programme, Cairn
Consortium already implements most of the options
listed above as a self-sustainable joint-venture
based on students personal Cultural Immersion
project requests, thus fulfilling the necessary
minimum preparatory
activities.
A EC-/Erasmus Mundus Programme
Joint-Masters Course must consist of an integrated
study programme. All of these features must be
fulfilled at the time of application and described
in the application in technical detail. As regards
the delivery of a double/multiple or joint degree,
the Commission accepts an exception to this rule
for the 2004 and 2005 selection rounds only: if a
consortium cannot guarantee the awarding of a
double/multiple or joint degree at the time of
application, it has to add a declaration that it
is able to do so at the time of selection (early
September 2004 for the Call for Proposals relating
to the academic year 2004/2005; January 2005 for
the Call for Proposals relating to the academic
year 2005/2006). This declaration will be checked
against its truthfulness before taking a selection
decision. In case of non-fulfilment of this
criterion the application will be
rejected.
Most of those institutional requirements
thus reside in the ability and stamina of
concerned European partners to abide in due time
to the prior-conditions presented in the
EC-Guidelines.
Cairn/SXC Consortium HQ in KTM/Nepal can
only serve the purpose of striving to become a
suitable Asian/LDC platform, as required for the
Asian part from the EC-
Guidelines.
The following TABLE is indicative of the
potential options being already
operational.

Looking for bright
students/researchers...! |
Cairn Cross-cultural Awareness
Network
Cairn seeks to
gather a network of motivated, strong and informed
researchers or students, who are curious about the
Western world future relations with the
geo-political giants being India and China, and
therefore are eager to discover from experiential
in this privileged strategic Himalayan
powerplace, what are the current background and
realities of today's exchanges; what are the
supporting myths of social control; what are the
underlying ethnic, economic, political and
religious systems in place or under
transformation; and finally more simply, what is
true about the Tibetan, Nepal, India and China
issues as perceived when situated at the core of
the Himalayan migration, in the year
2004.
Cairn looks
for interesting and interested Asian, EU and
American postgraduate researchers, NGO
professionals and/or students, who seek a
fundamental re-appraisal of their skills,
knowledge and attitude, when placed in a
challenging capacity building process helpful to
the target communities and often also in a context
of quite unknown efficacy, so as to discover,
build and demonstrate their potentials to be
future leaders in Euro / America - Asian
relations.
Because, more
often than not, core cultural or attitudinal
mis-representations in both Europe and America
plague the building up of any long-term
relationship to be grounded on ethics and mutual
confidence, the need for more awareness and
understanding of such issues as: Tibetan Dharma
practices, Nepal current (post-) Development- Aid
disaster (Maoists Insurgency), assessment of
actual Chinese or India economic influence (the
increasing migration of youth and workers to India
and China, or Arabian countries), and/or the INGOs/Donors/media roles and prognostics for the
Maoist Insurgency, being only a few among many
other issues, will bring to the participants
some spectacular surprises, from the first
Glimpses of Real Life around Bodhnath Stupa, up to
the long term better knowledge of people, policies, and the hermeneutics and practices of
the Himalayan people and resonance within
themselves.
Cairn
programme is neither a typical Dharma monasteries
enrolment hidden agenda, nor a typical
anthropology research project layout, nor a
language-based program, nor is it a cosy trek in
and around the Himalaya or Tibet. It is first a
challenging Cultural Immersion Research process
where students and researchers are faced with many
contradicting facets, such as : the need for
self-discipline while seeking inspiration, how to
conduct field-study in a cahotic context while
gathering relevant documentation, how to push
their project to fruition with often limited
resources, meet the needs and kindness of people
in a country in civil war and at the same time
remain focused, and finally see the results
brought by their own actions...
Participants
will enjoy interactions with the many people they
will meet, share and work with. They have full
advantage of the opportunities that genuine
cultural immersion programs may provide.
Initiative, awareness, ethics and drive are
important characteristics for successful
projects.
Beyond these
academic and motivational requirements,
participants will need to have the ability to work
from their own initiative within a diversified
cultural context and within target-communities,
where fruitful relations are based on mutual trust
and respect. Honesty, adaptability, openness, and tolerance are essential
qualities.
Cairn
organizes this programme in order to facilitate
the access, for EU- and American researchers,
development professionals and postgraduate
students, to strategic Euro-Asia
Transcultural Counselling Field- Research
& Courses Options
in Nepal, India, Tibet/TAR China and
S-Asia.
Options
include training resources in Post- Development
Policies, Rehabilitation, Crisis Prevention and
Remediation, Vocational, Career and/or Educational
Counselling, Education online, Investigation
Journalism or simple Volunteer projects, as well
as more indepth training experiential in healing
and psychotherapy in Tibetan Traditional Medicine
Psychology (Tsa-rLung Healing). These can be
linked easily to the participants academic
background within disciplines such as : Clinical
Anthropology, Health Anthropology, Social/Health
Education, Applied Psychology to Counselling,
Ethno-medicine, Phenomenology, Transpersonal (Holistic)
Psychotherapy, as well as Applied
Psychology to HRD and Organization
Management.
A short list
of high quality online training resources and
highly qualified practitioners has been selected
in situ, for designing, delivering, coaching and
facilitating the inputs at the various
professional levels required for ECTS/ECDL credits
in professional training research
certification.
